Re: Which lineage does Ati Yoga belong?
I think one could say it belongs to the Nyingma lineage. But it is also practiced and transmitted in Kagyu.
Some might say that its a stand alone lineage but it is mostly spead in the Nyinma lineage.

Re: Which lineage does Ati Yoga belong?
Yes and no. Most guru yogas related to Dzogchen are anuyiga style practices, for example, the Chetsun Nyingthig, or Guru Yoga of the White A of Norbu Rinpoche, among others. Ati Guru Yoga itself comes from the teachings of CHNN, but one can find corollaries for n other terma cycles.Dawa Ösel wrote: ↑Sat May 27, 2023 9:49 am [Mod note: ]In order to prevent off topic discussion this topic has been split from here: https://www.dharmawheel.net/viewtopic.p ... 94#p664994

true dharma is inexpressible.

Re: Which lineage does Ati Yoga belong?
I believe that Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche taught one that is very similar.
Re: Which lineage does Ati Yoga belong?
So, Ati Guru Yoga ist just Guru Yoga in the context of Dzogchen?
Re: Which lineage does Ati Yoga belong?
Chnn often refered to a practice in dudjom tersar as being identical to ati guru yogaPassing By wrote: ↑Sun May 28, 2023 3:45 pmWhat would some examples of those be?Malcolm wrote: ↑Sat May 27, 2023 12:52 pmbut one can find corollaries for n other terma cycles.Dawa Ösel wrote: ↑Sat May 27, 2023 9:49 am [Mod note: ]In order to prevent off topic discussion this topic has been split from here: https://www.dharmawheel.net/viewtopic.p ... 94#p664994

Re: Which lineage does Ati Yoga belong?
Interesting.
I honestly don’t ever recall him even mentioning the Dudjom lineage. Of course he was aware of it, and most likely saw it as 100% legit. I probably just wasn’t paying attention when he mentioned it then.

I’m sure that he did.
He’s the Dharmaraja (per one of the Six Munis of Mahayoga if you shall) after all; the lord of bringing individuals out of the hell realms like Ksitigarbha

Re: Which lineage does Ati Yoga belong?
Dzogchen is the tibetan word for Ati.
Ati guru yoga is the most essential guruyoga there is, it exists only in the ati yana (yana means vehicle).
Ati yana is one of the 9 vehicles that Guru Padmasambhava taught, but it is more ancient than Guru Padmasambhava.
So yes, ati guruyoga means guruyoga in ati and exists only in ati yana. There is no other context.
In other yanas one can find the same "form", for example in the boddhisatva yana as the prajñaparamita essence, but it is not atiguruyoga.
I dare to say that even if the boddhisatvas might perceive it's importance and meditate on it, it is not exposed directly to them as it is in the atiyana, it is not explained to them. So that's why one is lucky to get explanations, it is a short cut of eons.
Idk, it is how i see it.

I remember that ChNN said Dudjom Rinpoche was one of his teacher, back in Tibet.

He also received teachings from Dudjom Rinpoche in India, after he left Tibet and before he followed Tucci to Italy.
Both Dudjom Lingpa and Dudjom Rinpoche are there among the teachers represented on the walls of the Merigar gompa.
